-Women Leaders Silent on Resolution
Condemning Normand Film
Other women's organizations of
Omaha seem unlikely to follow the
lead of the Omaha Woman’s Chris
tian Temperance union in demanding
that films by Mabel Normand be
barred from the screen, according to
statements by several club leaders.
’ Of the two other unions in the
city, neither has taken any action to
date and no movement Is on foot at
present to take up the matter, ac
l c , cording to their presidents.
, "Miss Normand is no more guilty
‘ than a lot of the rest of the stars,"
,„ , said Mrs. H. Getscher, president of
the Johnson union. "Of course, if
— -she were really implicated in the
^' shootings in any way, she should be
punished; but we are not the ones to
do it.”
Members of the Frances Willard
union have had no business meeting
since the unanimous passage by theie
sister union of the resolution con
demning the Normand films, said
their president, Mrs. II. N. Craig,
and so she has no means of knowing
their opinion of the resolution. She
thinks a similar action by her chap
ter is unlikely.
Mrs. Philip Potter, president of the
Omaha Woman's club, said no men
tion of the matter had so far been
made before the Woman's club, and
that she had no comment to make
upon the action of the W. C. T. U.

Pres9 It at Home.
To retain the crease In trousers
and prevent bagging at the knees use
the following method: Reduce to a
fine powder one ounce of gum traga
canth and one ounce of gum arable
and mix well.
Now dissolve one tablespoonful of
this powder In hnlf a pint of hot
water and shake thoroughly. Turn
the trousers wrong side out and
moisten wi*h this preparation a strip
one Inch wide down the front of the
leg. Turn on the right elde again
and press the trousers with a hot
iron along the crease.
If the goods Is the kind that
stretches easily and gets out of
shape quickly give extra protection
in this way: Turn the trousers
wrong side out and attach to the
edge of the leg seams, just over the
knee, a silk patch eight inches long
and as wide as the width of the
trousers leg. Sew this securely along
the outer edge of the seams.
Now turn again to the right side
and press the crease firmly from top
t« bottom of the leg. The silk helps
to retain ths creass, permitting the
doth to slide freely over the knees
srhsn ths wearer 1» sitting or stoop
inf. thus preventing bagging at the
knees.

,r watch. If one haa any objection to
wearing one’s watch on one’s pocket
i In these days when holdups make
■! ths earning of a livelihood so easy
for so many, one can be just as smart
and up to the minute If dangling
from ths fob is a silver, platinum or
• jewel pendant of gome sort.
